this happened to me with Futurology. WHere have all these signed copies gone? In 2014 They really should have a fully functioning online shop.

My copy has arrived. Well done to Play Direct for using a proper courier company this time, FedEx. Only waiting for a week certainly makes up the waiting 28 days for Futurology. I almost don't want to the item out of the cardboard packing. I will photograph the box though!

They sent mine via shitty Yodel who market it as "delivered" despite leaving with a neighbour.

The other day they left something on my doorstep.

http://youtu.be/8X6JL9gZZ6s guy unboxing his deluxe... It seems to me he said that the cost was a litttle excessive. Anyone having the same feeling?

4 CDs and 1 LP for £50? not at all. Most bands would charge double for that.

I ordered it when it came out for the signed version but apparently the order didn't go through which is a bit of a pisstake, so I've nabbed it via Amazon.

Looking forward to seeing it.

Keith Cameron hears what I hear.

@KeithCameron2: I have listened to @Manics' The Holy Bible often enough to declare with total conviction that the new remaster is off-the-scale. Stunning.

@KeithCameron2: @david0akes no, it's new and you can feel it. Way more depth. Has power of US mix without sacrificing the original's rawness. Definitive.


Another vote for this remaster.

I am greatly enjoying listening to the new remaster. I had previously only listened to the 10th anniversary edition which is so loud.

So those February dates in the booklet are presumably 1995 when Richey left? And the US dates from the abandoned tour? With February 20th "record Judge Dread + rehearsals" Making Judge Yr Self being recorded after Richey left. Otherwise it would be February 1994 before Holy Bible was recorded.

Well, yes, and in the end I think it's generally accepted that Judge Yrself was recorded in 2003.

That '40 page 12" book' is utter shit. Why did they have to overlap all the stuffs so I can't even distinguish their handwritings?
